HEALING
(repair)
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
• Review the normal physiology and concepts
of cell proliferation, cell growth, cell “cycle”,
and cell differentiation
• Understand the basic factors of tissue
regeneration
• Understand the relationships between cells
and their ExtraCellular Matrix (ECM)
• Understand the roles of the major players of
healing---angiogenesis, growth factors (GFs),
and fibrosis
• Differentiate 1st & 2nd intention healing
DEFINITIONS:
• REGENERATION: Growth of
cells to replace lost tissues
• DIFFERENTIATION *
– UNIDIRECTIONAL, GAIN and LOSS
• APOPTOSIS
• EMBRYONIC
• ADULT

STEM CELLS

DEVELOPMENT
Growth Factors (GFs)
• Polypeptides
• Cytokines
• LOCOMOTION
• CONTRACTILITY
• DIFFERENTIATION
• ANGIOGENESIS
Growth Factors (GFs)
• Epidermal
• Transforming (alpha, beta)
• Hepatocyte
• Vascular Endothelial
• Platelet Derived
• Fibroblast
• Keratinocyte
• Cytokines (TNF, IL-1, Interferons)
CELL PLAYERS
(source AND targets)
• Lymphocytes, especially T-cells
• Macrophages
• Platelets
• Endothelial cells
• Fibroblasts
• Keratinocytes
• “Mesenchymal” cells
• Smooth muscle cells
E(Epidermal) GF
• Made in platelets, macrophages
• Present in saliva, milk, urine, plasma
• Acts on keratinocytes to migrate, divide
• Acts on fibroblasts to produce
“granulation” tissue
T(Transforming) GF-alpha
• Made in macrophages, T-cells,
keratinocytes
• Similar to EGF, also effect on
hepatocytes
H(Hepatocyte) GF
• Made in “mesenchymal” cells
• Proliferation of epithelium,
endothelium, hepatocytes
• Effect on cell “motility”
VE(Vascular Endothelial) GF
• Made in mesenchymal cells
• Triggered by HYPOXIA
• Increases vascular permeability
• Mitogenic for endothelial cells
• KEY substance in promoting
“granulation” tissue
PD(Platelet Derived) GF
• Made in platelets, but also MANY
other cell types
• Chemotactic for MANY cells
• Mitogen for fibroblasts
• Angiogenesis
• Another KEY player in granulation
tissue
F(Fibroblast) GF
• Made in MANY cells
• Chemotactic and mitogenic, for
fibroblasts and keratinocytes
• Re-epithelialization
• Angiogenesis, wound contraction
• Hematopoesis
• Cardiac/Skeletal (striated) muscle
T(Transforming) GF-beta
• Made in MANY CELLS
• Chemotactic for PMNs and MANY
other types of cells
• Inhibits epithelial cells
• Fibrogenic
• Anti-Inflammatory
K(Keratinocyte) GF
• Made in fibroblasts
• Stimulates
keratinocytes:
– Migration
– Proliferation
– Differentiation
I(Insulin-like) GF-1
• Made in macrophages, fibroblasts
• Stimulates:
– Sulfated proteoglycans
– Collagen
– Keratinocyte migration
– Fibroblast proliferation
• Action similar to GH (Pituitary
Growth Hormone)
TNF (Tumor Necrosis Factor)
• Made in macrophages, mast
cells, T-cells
• Activates macrophages
• KEY influence on other
cytokines
Interleukins
• Made in macrophages, mast cells,
T-cells, but also MANY other cells
• MANY functions:
– Chemotaxis
– Angiogenesis
– REGULATION of other cytokines
INTERFERONS
• Made by lymphocytes,
fibroblasts
• Activates MACROPHAGES
• Inhibits FIBROBLASTS
• REGULATES other cytokines
SIGNALING
• Autocrine (same cell)
TNF
IL6
HGF
ExtraCellular Matrix (ECM)
• Collagen(s) I-XVIII
• Elastin
• Fibrillin
• CAMs (Cell Adhesion Molecules)
– Immunoglobulins, cadherins, integrins,
selectins
• Proteoglycans
• Hyaluronic Acid
ECM
• Maintain cell differentiation
• “Scaffolding”
• Establish microenvironment
• Storage of GF’s
Collagen One - bONE (main component of bone)
